1940's reprint of 1920's hardback release.
Good hardback in fair dust jacket.
Dust jacket has a couple of spine chips. Unclipped. Wrapped in Mylar.
An anachronistic oddity...a last literary gasp of post-US Civil War racism.
Georgian born Harry Stilwell Edwards wrote this pro-slavery novella (really a chaptered short story) in 1920, perpetuating Confederacy-style tropes about southern blacks and the "character building benefits" of good ol' southern-fried slavery.
The character of Eneas, a former slave, embarks on a "holy grail-style" quest to recovered the prized property of his former owner to prove his steadfast loyalty to his erstwhile master, even in freedom.
This book is a historical artefact; a populist relic of the "Jim Crow" south.
